A beautiful and comprehensive introduction to this important field. --Dusa McDuff, Barnard College, Columbia University This excellent book gives a detailed, clear, and wonderfully written treatment of the interplay between the world of Stein manifolds and the more topological and flexible world of Weinstein manifolds. Devoted to this subject with a long history, the book serves as a super introduction to this area and also contains the authors' new results. --Tomasz Mrowka, MIT This book is devoted to the interplay between complex and symplectic geometry in affine complex manifolds. Affine complex (a.k.a. Stein) manifolds have canonically built into them symplectic ... Read more

This book is a remarkable mix of classical topics and research done by the authors over the last twenty years. It is both a textbook and a research monograph. ... [M]ore classical material...is presented from the perspective of their applications in the book. It is fascinating and refreshing to see these classical tools in action, combined and applied to create ... Read more
